	Theatre Street
		In 1883, as a result of a dispute between the Town Clerk and the proprietor, Mr William Sidney, concerning the provision of additional exits, the discovery was made that the licence granted in 1768 was personal to Thomas Ivory and had expired on his death in 1779.
		The theatre owned by Mr Sidney therefore was not a Patent Theatre but had been carried on for 104 years without patent, licence or permit of any kind.

	Theatre in the round projection apparatus and method - Patent 5179399
		This limits the amount of light which can be used to project the images because the reflected light tends to wash out the images portrayed on the screen due to the light reflected from the other side of the viewing area 18.
		The present invention provides a projection system for a theatre in the round having a plurality of moving image projectors and an essentially cylindrical surface for display of projected moving images.
		However, the cost associated with increasing the lens size is really de minimus compared to the total cost of installing a theatre in the round, and therefore the cost is easily justified by the improved images which are projected in accordance with the present invention.

		Letters Patent granted by King Charles II, in 1662 to Thomas Killigrew and in 1662/3 to Sir William Davenant, gave each of them a right to build a theatre and to manage a company of actors, and at the same time suppressed other companies in London and Westminster.

	Sleeve Notes - Purcell: Ayres for the Theatre
		For the first time, a monopoly was established over all theatrical performances; it was given to the two licensed or 'patent' theatre companies, a state of affairs that lasted until the nineteenth century.
		Much of the instrumental music for the Restoration theatre was 'incidental' in that it was not part of the play itself; the groups of dances called 'first music' and 'second music' served to warn the audience that the performance was about to begin, and four more were used as interval music or 'act tunes'.
		Outside the theatre most of them were played in concert versions with the overture (originally placed after the 'first' and 'second' music) at the beginning and the dances shuffled to provide a satisfactory sequence of mood and key.

		She used a text which, despite being heavily cut and bowdlerized, was more faithful to the original than any version which had appeared on stage since Shakespeare's day; all of Garrick's "improvements" were removed and Romeo's youthful passion for Rosaline was expressed for the first time in many years.
